An informal introduction to the ideas and concepts of noncommutative geometry
by Thierry Masson
Publisher: arXiv 2006
Number of pages: 56
Description:
This informal introduction is an extended version of a three hours lecture given at the 6th Peyresq meeting "Integrable systems and quantum field theory". In this text, we make an overview of some of the mathematical results which motivated the development of what is called noncommutative geometry.

Geometric Models for Noncommutative Algebra
by Ana Cannas da Silva, Alan Weinstein - University of California at Berkeley
Noncommutative geometry is the study of noncommutative algebras as if they were algebras of functions on spaces, like the commutative algebras associated to affine algebraic varieties, differentiable manifolds, topological spaces, and measure spaces.

An Introduction to Noncommutative Spaces and their Geometry
by Giovanni Landi - arXiv
These lectures notes are an introduction for physicists to several ideas and applications of noncommutative geometry. The necessary mathematical tools are presented in a way which we feel should be accessible to physicists.

Homological Methods in Noncommutative Geometry
by D. Kaledin
The first seven lectures deal with the homological part of the story (cyclic homology, its various definitions, various additional structures it possesses). Then there are four lectures centered around Hochschild cohomology and the formality theorem.
